These deadlines are, as always, Submitter Beware, because I can’t vouch for any of these publishers. This is basically just a place for me to deposit short story deadlines to which I would like to submit work, so all the markets are paying (usually at least $.01 a word) and accept electronic submissions. They’re all genre markets of some kind (horror, science fiction, steampunk, fantasy).

I’m currently shopping a few stories around to podcasts, so I ended up compiling this list of podcasts and their submission guidelines. I thought other people might find it helpful so…here you go. All of these podcasts pay their contributors (sorry, StarShipSofa) and publish some variation of speculative fiction, and aren’t associated with a print magazine (like Lightspeed or Clarkesworld). Pay careful attention, because many of these podcasts are closed for submissions at various times, and may be closed right this second. They’re arranged according to payment offered.

Escape Pod: Pays $.06/word for original science fiction stories and $100 for reprints between 2,000 and 6,000 words.

PodCastle: Pays $.06/word for original fantasy stories and $100 for reprints between 2,000 and 6,000 words, or $20 for stories under 2,000 words.

PseudoPod: Pays $.06/word for original fantasy stories and $100 for reprints between 1,500 and 6,000 words, or $20 for stories under 1,500 words.

You may have noticed last month I missed posting deadlines (or maybe you didn’t; I’m not sure anyone actually reads this thing…*taps microphone*). I have a new job and a new house and not a lot of time to write, especially things like blog posts, which are unpaid. So, I missed the deadline. Oops. I’ll try to make it up to you by having two this month: one today, and one next week about podcasts. Deal? Deal. Okay, here we come with those deadlines…

Please be sure to check Horror Tree, Ralan and Dark Markets for more publications looking for submissions. This list is by no means exhaustive. Oh, and don’t forget to check posts from previous months (they’re all categorized under Upcoming Deadlines) for publications that are still open.

If you’re an editor or publisher and you’d like me to feature your deadline here, you can email me at sarah.hans at gmail dot com with the details.

Sorry I forgot to post this yesterday! I”m looking for a new place to live, so that’s been taking up the majority of my time, which probably also explains why this month’s deadline list is a little short.

Also note: Daily Science Fiction is currently closed to pieces longer than 2,000 words, but they still need shorter stories. So if you’ve got some SF flash that needs a home, now is a good time to send it to them!
